The watches are both accented by metallic blue on the dials that give them a modernized profile, while also paying homage to the signature shade of Casio's logo. The watches both feature the same dependable functionality as their original counterparts, but prioritize an eye-catching profile that makes them perfect for new or existing fans. The G-SHOCK GM-B2100 and GMW-B5000 timepieces with their metallic blue dials are available now via the brand's website for $550 each. The watches both feature the brand's Tough Solar technology, LED backlights and Bluetooth smartphone link, while also being water resistant to 200-meters.
